Guess they couldnвЂ™t get Drescher for the Hallmark Hanukkah movie (more on that below), but weвЂ™ll settle for her stealing scenes in the gay Lifetime movie.Дashing in December (Paramount Network, December 13 at 7 p.m.)ДЄndie MacDowell is draped in so many shawls in this cinematic event. The Christmas Setup (Lifetime, December 12 at 8 p.m.)ДЄctual living goddess Fran Drescher trades leopard print for buffalo plaid in The Christmas Setup, in which she plays a meddling mother who tries to set up her workaholic big city lawyer son with his high-school crush Patrick when theyвЂ™re all home in Milwaukee for the holidays. Between Davis, Garber, and Levy, this film has queer Canadian excellence written all over it. So cold! Dan Levy plays a best friend who is also roped into the charade, while Alison Brie and Aubrey Plaza round out the extremely stacked cast.

She springs it on her when theyвЂ™re pulling up to the house, telling her that sheвЂ™ll have to pretend to play her straight, orphaned roommate.

But hey, if you sift through enough lumps of coal, though, you just might find some cubic zirconia. Or, they just used all the movies theyвЂ™ve been sitting on that werenвЂ™t good enough for past yearsвЂ™ lineups, and now the B-team of Christmas B-roll is getting its year in the spotlight. Although this year, we have to ask: How did they do it in 2020? How did the powers that be manage to pull 82 new Christmas movies (and one Hanukkah film!) out of their proverbial gingerbread asses, amid all the lockdowns and quarantines and restrictions and malaise? One might call it a Christmas miracle. Take the same haggard tropes - the struggling inns, the small towns, the career women who must be cured of their unladylike ambitions by falling in love with boring men - and just switch the names and actors around, and itвЂ™s a tradition that works year after year.
